"250 GT Pininfarina" with 330 Engine on Ebay??

Post by wwwboard »

Tom, et al:

What is the deal with this car? Either it is a 250 GTE or a 330 America. Does anyone know? Does anyone else think the entry price on "Buy It Now" is kind of steep?

Good Motoring to All!

Hi Todd,

Well, from the pictures, it is probably a 330 engine, but it definitely is a GTE body because it has the earlier fog light configuration of the Series I or IIs. All Americas used Series III bodies. There were approximately 950-955 GTEs made, and 50 330 Americas, not 1500 as the ad states, but who's counting!

If we can get a serial number, I can get you more information.

Tom

P.S. Either GTEs are going up in price, or they're asking a lot for a car with the wrong motor. I would say the latter because for that kind of money, you should buy Michael Sheehan's 330 America for the princely sum of $75K!

Hi Douglas,

I just tried Sheehan's site myself, and it looks to be down.
Tom Shaugnessy has a Boxer to drool over in the meantime:

With any luck, I'll have "in car" footage of me driving the car soon!
